Chapter 69: Fake

    

, Wan Xing Auction House."What! Fang Keqing killed Qing Wuzizi! He escaped from Tiyu Shenzong! The three peak masters of Tiyu Shenzong issued a pursuit order against him."Yanni Qiao Lin rose from the...Yuan Wen also showed a look of excitement.

"Wanxing Auction House! Do you dare to swallow my 200,000 spirit stones I'll make you return every single one of them!"

"No! You will pay tenfold!"

He sneered, then looked towards Elder Lou and transmitted his voice, "Elder Lou, is there a problem"

"Lou Lao smiled confidently and also transmitted his voice, "This is all thanks to the fake pill you mentioned last time, it gave me inspiration. Don't worry, these idiots at the Wanxing Auction House definitely won't be able to see through this magic yuan sky pearl, otherwise they wouldn't have put it up for auction,"

"Now, the only thing left to do is make him keep raising the price," Yuan Wen smiled wickedly.

Of course, they wouldn't do it themselves. They had already arranged people under the ring.

They will keep bidding the price too high and then win, and afterwards, just like before, they will go to Wanxing Auction House to exchange for compensation.

Standing high above, Gao Ta Fangzheng was smiling as he introduced: "Everyone, this bead is called the Mo Yuan Tianzhu. It is a natural creation of heaven and earth, containing rich and pure demonic energy. For those who cultivate demon arts, it offers great benefits."

Demon cultivators are rare in the Tianyu Divine Sect, but they are quite common outside. After all, demon cultivators advance faster.

As soon as these words were spoken, many people's eyes lit up, and their gazes were fixed on the magic yuan orb.

Fang Chen was also like this. As a cultivator of demons, he was naturally interested in this Magic Yuan Heaven Pearl.

"Well, something's not right."

But soon, Fang Chen felt that something was amiss with this Demonic Yuan Heavenly Pearl.

This is a feeling coming from his Sword Demon Physique. If it's really as Fang Zheng said, there shouldn't be such a sensation.

He unleashed his Soul-Piercing Demonic Eye, piercing the Mystical Heavenly Orb with it.

First his exterior, then his interior, were laid bare before him.

At this glance, Fang Chen finally discovered something amiss.

The demonic energy emanating from within the Mo Yuan Tian Zhu is not inherent to the orb itself, but rather stems from a Demonic Source Stone implanted inside it.

This Stone Demon Qi is similar to the Magic Yuan Heavenly Pearl, but the Stone Demon Qi cannot be preserved and mostly dissipates on its own within half a month.

This kind of forgery is similar to the fake talisman from last time, but it lacks the finesse of that one. Even so, it would be difficult for ordinary people to tell the difference between real and fake, let alone those who don't understand magic.

Fang Chen thought to himself, then smiled wryly. The Wanxing Auction House had been fooled again.

"We can't let this pearl be auctioned off, or else Wanxing will be in trouble."

Right now, the auction has already begun, and the price is climbing steadily. It has already reached 500,000.

Fang Chen called for a maidservant and asked, "Can an auction be stopped midway"

The maid was startled and shook her head resolutely. "No, it's impossible unless someone snatches it away. Once it starts, you can't stop halfway."

Upon hearing this, Fang Chen's heart sank.

He said, "Have the shopkeeper Yan come here. Tell her there's something important to discuss, something that concerns the reputation of the auction house."

The maid was taken aback, but seeing Fang Chen's serious expression, she didn't dare to be negligent. She nodded and said yes before immediately leaving.

And at this moment, the bidding for the Moyuan Tian stone has already reached 800,000.

This made Fang Zheng, on the stage, extremely excited. The price of a Mo Yuan Tian Stone is at most over 300,000. Being able to sell it at this price had already far exceeded his expectations.

Lou Lao, seeing this, said, "It's almost enough. If it goes any higher, it will be easily suspected."

"He smiled and nodded in agreement with Yuan Wen."

800,000 spirit stones, double compensation that's 1.6 million, but what they want is not just this.

"800,000 Do we have a higher bid"

Fang Zheng gazed at the crowd below, hoping for a higher price.

Unfortunately, silence fell below, and it seemed everyone had lost interest in bidding.

Fang Zheng was a little disappointed, but eighty million was already high enough, so he didn't continue to delay.

"800,000 once! Twice!"

"820,000!"

Just as Fang Zheng was about to make a decision, another voice sounded.

The crowd was shocked, they didn't expect anyone else to bid.

They all turned to look, and saw a young man calmly raising his hand among the distinguished guests. It was Fang Chen.

820,000, are you crazy

Even if this demonic yuan heavenly bead possesses immense magical power, 820,000 is still too high.

"That's it, that's it."

Everyone looked at Fang Chen with a foolish gaze, but Fang Chen ignored them.

Since he couldn't stop it, he just bought the pearl. It couldn't fall into someone else's hands.

He's also a guest consultant for Wanxing Auction House. We can't just stand by and watch the auction house be taken advantage of like this.

Lou Lao and Yu Yuanwen were also taken aback. They didn't expect that there were people besides them who would bid.

When Yu Yuan saw Fang Chen, he was so angry his teeth itched.

"That damn bastard ruined my plans again!" He quickly transmitted his voice to the people below, "Keep bidding! No matter what, we have to get it!"

"Yes!"

Below came the reply from his subordinates.

Lao Lou didn't stop them either. If they didn't take it down, their fabrication would be pointless.

He just looked at Fang Chen with confusion, muttering, "Why is he still raising the price Could he have seen something"

"It's impossible!" Yu Yuanwen stated firmly. "Lao Lou's forgery skills are so formidable, there's no way that mongrel could have seen through it. If my guess is correct, he's also a demon cultivator, probably wanting to take this bead and cultivate

"

"is also"

Lou Lao nodded in agreement, he didn't believe his forgery would be seen through by a young kid.

"850,000!"

"870,000!"

The people below in the original text continued to shout.

Fang Chen wasn't in a hurry. He waited until Fang Zheng was about to shout "Sold" before casually shouting the price of 900,000.

This made Yuanwen and Loulao grind their teeth in anger, but they didn't dare show it too obviously. They could only curse Fang Chen's eighteen generations of ancestors in their hearts.

At the same time, Yan Qiao Lin finally arrived.

"Lord Fang, what's wrong"

She naturally knows the color outside.

Fang Chen suddenly joined the bidding, there must be a reason.

Fang Chen also said first, "That bead is fake."

As soon as these words were spoken, Yan Qiao Lin was struck dumb with shock.

A nine hundred thousand dollar auction item turning out to be fake would undoubtedly cause a huge stir once it got out. Wanxing Auction House would suffer immensely, with their reputation taking a massive hit.

"Is what you said, Mr. Fang, really true"

Even though he believed in Fang Chen, he couldn't help but ask another question.

"I'm a master of detecting illusions, this bead can't escape my eyes. If I'm not mistaken, someone bidding against me down there is in cahoots with you. You want to bid high and then turn around and demand double or even ten times the amount as compensation from them."

Fang Chendao.

Meanwhile, the bidding price has already reached one million spirit stones.

Fang Chen didn't hesitate, and spoke again: "102 million."

"One hundred and five!"

"One hundred and eight!"

A few people were still bidding against Fang Chen downstairs.

Yan Qiao-lin also realized something was amiss. A Mo Yuan Tianzhu couldn't possibly sell for this price. As Fang Chen said, someone wanted to target their Wanxing Auction House.

She immediately said, "Master Fang, you can just bid, don't worry, our Wanxing Auction House won't let you suffer a loss."

She then cast a cold glance at the several people below the stage and said, "I have some things to attend to."

Fang Chen nodded. "Don't worry"

Immediately, Yan Qiao-lin left.

Fang Chen continued to bid.

Lou Lao and Yu Yuanwen's faces were grim, wishing they could dismember Fang Chen into eight pieces.

At this moment, they also realized that Fang Chen must have discovered something, which is why he went crazy bidding.

"Could it be that this kid saw through the ruse and wants to make a big profit just like us" Yu Yuanwen said.

"Just forget it, let those people stop shouting, otherwise we'll be in big trouble, Lao Dao."

"Old Lou, at this point, we can't give up easily!" Yu Wen said unwillingly.

"What else do you want!"

Yuan Wenyin smiled wickedly and said, "I have a plan that will send this bastard to his death!"ou intend to give me this inheritance"Fang Chen nodded. "Yes, it was meant for you. I believe this inheritance will be of great help to your alchemy.""But this is the inheritance of a ninth-rank divin...
